The artwork, titled “Adjustable Wall Bra,” was created by artist Vito Acconci in 1991. It belongs to the art movement known as Conceptual Art and is classified under the genre of installation.
The artwork consists of two large, rounded forms reminiscent of the shape of a bra. These forms are suspended from the ceiling, tethered securely with cables, resembling a bracketed and hanging structure. Positioned against a plain white wall and gray carpeted floor, the materials and form invoke an interplay of functionality and abstract conceptualization, prevalent in the era of its creation. The hanging constructs appear adjustable, in line with the title, emphasizing the exploration of adaptability and form in physical space. This installation invites viewers to interpret its conceptual dimensions and its interaction with the surrounding architectural elements.
